Comments:

  • Considering how Jesus started up Christianity basically, I think it would be a wonderful idea to turn this into an FA. We've already done a good bit of work dealing with citations, finding scholars, etc. etc., the only main problem we have in the article is a whole lot of, well, fighting :/. If we work together and find good citations for everything, we can have everything all neat and cited, and with enough help, we'll have plenty of people to get a good consensus on how to change the iffy parts of the article. We already have a pretty active group of people trying to work on this, if we all throw our weight behind this, we can get moving hopefully a whole lot more faster. One of the biggest problems it seems (And it seems one of the biggest causes of fights) is a lack of information on certain key issues, either through it being hard to look up or something else, but I think we can handle it if we all work together :). Homestarmy 03:04, 5 March 2006 (UTC)[reply]
I think some reference to the Gnostic tradition would be a good addition for the article. Cheers. SeanMack 09:03, 10 March 2006 (UTC)[reply]
I added your suggestion to Talk:Jesus. Not sure if this would fit better under historicity or religious perspectives. Arch O. LaTalkTCF 16:57, 10 March 2006 (UTC)[reply]
  • Though some might think the Jesus article would be strictly Christian POV, I can assure that there are dozens of non-Christians constantly editing that article to assure not. We even have the "CE" (Common era) date notations in unison with AD/BC to ensure balanced POV. This is a perfect featured article candidate. CrazyInSane 15:45, 11 March 2006 (UTC)[reply]

  • Could use help in general but particularly from non-fans. A well done article that mainly needs copyediting to make its prose flow from section to section (possibly switch around some paragraphs in plots and/or themes sections) as well as sources. Preferably scholarly ones if available; I've done quite a bit of sourcing but mainly via Google and DVD extras. On that same note, some sections still sound like they were written by fans; a couple comments are in brackets next to the places where I added the "citation needed" template. Moulder 10:07, 6 June 2006 (UTC)[reply]
  • Great choice. Might the "Awards and distinctions" section be merged with part of the "Criticisms" section into a general "Reaction" section? Also, maybe one of our copyeditors with attention to detail can standardize the usage of "DS9" vs "Deep Space Nine" when referring to the show. Either way, fully support.

  • The article has changed a lot in recent weeks for obvious reasons (it's Britney Spears), I have worked on it, and changed somethings around to my belief that it is now more structured, and flows better. We could really use some help in cleaning it up. Myrockstar 04:16, 2 August 2006 (UTC)[reply]

  • This article is about a significant international aspect and should become a featured article as quickly as possible. It has already gone through peer review and was a former featured article candidate. Green caterpillar 18:43, 4 August 2006 (UTC)[reply]

  • Not only one of the world's most well-liked foods, but also significant to the history of Mesoamerica and a topic of interest for economics and labor relations reasons. Long detailed article needs better organization and referencing. An excellent candidate for collaboration because of its popularity: nearly everyone knows something about chocolate. Durova 03:57, 24 August 2006 (UTC)[reply]
  • Mmmh... Chocolate. Great subject, perfect for collaboration: badly needs referencing. After the coffee table books craze of the late 90's, everyone must have one about chocolate at home. --SidiLemine 14:01, 4 September 2006 (UTC)[reply]

  • The largest religion in the world should at least be featured article-caliber. Jcam 15:57, 8 November 2006 (UTC)[reply]
  • Due to the large number of editors already trying to deal with this article, we'll need plenty of people to participate for this collaboration, otherwise, I don't think we'll change much for better. Homestarmy 16:14, 8 November 2006 (UTC)[reply]

  • Peer review seems to offer hope as a possible FA in the pattern of other short FA's, plus, there seems to be an editor there who can help us with any questions we might have about certain things in the article. (Plus, I think its just an interesting topic, what with the Taliban's hatred of all religions not Muslim and whatnot). Homestarmy 02:49, 5 December 2006 (UTC)[reply]
